The Vivitar\u00a0Ultra Wide and Slim is one of the ultimate plastic cameras.\u00a0 It has a “Ultra wide” 22mm lens and is an incredibly small camera, you could ever say it’s massively\u00a0slender.\u00a0 One thing to keep in mind is that it has a fixed aperture of F11 and a fixed shutter speed of 1\/125sec.\u00a0 So to get the best results you want to shoot in circumstances that require exposures around that level.\u00a0 I was using ISO 400 film so that would be about EV12 or average daylight.\u00a0 Looking at the roll of film as a whole it’s clear that I pointed the camera towards the light a lot.\u00a0 Well it’s a plastic lens of course it’s going to flare so let it flare.\u00a0 And vignette don’t get my started with the vignetting it’s perfectly awful!\u00a0 OK so it’s bad in a good way and I’m nearly out of oxymorons.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\t\t
